“What is the mark of a Christian? That he be purified of all defilement of the flesh and of the spirit in the Blood of Christ, perfecting sanctification in the fear of God and the love of Christ, and that he have no blemish nor spot nor any such thing; that he be holy and blameless and so eat the Body of Christ and drink His Blood; for 'he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh judgement to himself.' What is the mark of those who eat the Bread and drink the Cup of Christ? That they keep in perpetual remembrance Him who died for us and rose again.” BodyChristianSpiritChristBloodDrinkHolyMarkDiedRoseFleshBreadSpotsCupsJudgementPerpetualRemembranceSacramentsSanctificationBody Of ChristBlamelessDefilement Author:Saint Basil
“IN PERSIA I SAW that poetry is meant to be set to music & chanted or sung--for one reason alone--because it works.A right combination of image & tune plunges the audience into a hal (something between emotional/aesthetic mood & trance of hyperawareness), outbursts of weeping, fits of dancing--measurable physical response to art. For us the link between poetry & body died with the bardic era--we read under the influence of a cartesian anaesthetic gas.” ArtReasonBodyAudienceSawsInfluenceEmotionalFitDiedDancingResponseMoodErasCombinationGasTunesPoetry IsLinksMeant To BeAestheticWeepingPlungeTranceOutburstPersia Author:Hakim
“We read our mail and counted up our missions In bombers named for girls, we burned The cities we had learned about in school Till our lives wore out; our bodies lay among The people we had killed and never seen.

They said, "Here are the maps"; we burned the cities.” PeopleLongSaidEnoughBodySchoolGirlCitiesOur LivesLowsDiedLaysMissionsMapsMailBurnedThey SaidMedalCasualtiesBombers Author:Randall Jarrell
